I had a stellar experience at Cedar Glen Lodge. If you're reading this and on the fence about booking, consider this to be your green light. ✅✅✅✅✅First of all, the location is great in terms of proximity to activities / natural beauty. The property had an electric car charger (both Tesla NACS and J1772) which is super helpful when you're doing road trips in an EV. There is also designated parking which makes things hassle free. On the way to my room, I remember seeing a stack of board games which I felt was thoughtful.Coming to the rooms themselves, they're pretty, comfy, and well maintained. The room I was in had that fun, positive, and rustic vibe which made my stay enjoyable. While slightly on the smaller side, it was big enough to be comfortable, and the size kind of added to the 'coziness' of this place. I appreciated the heater and the nice view from the window as well. I also liked that I was given my space and privacy until I asked for something.One of the highlights of my stay was using the hot tub on a cold winter morning, while looking at the tall trees, fresh snow, and breathing in the fresh air. It felt so relaxing, and made me feel like I was "taking in" Tahoe. The staff member obliged to open it up slightly earlier than normal for me upon request, which I appreciated.Speaking of the staff, I must say, they're phenomenal! From the moment I checked in, they were friendly, answered all my questions, and helped me with anything I needed. You could tell that they really cared about customers having a good stay. To top it off, they even went above and beyond by finding a necklace that I had accidentally left behind prior to checking out, and mailing it to my city! I'm really thankful to the staff for this.I hope I can stay here again sooner than later! 🔥

Needed a room last minute in the area with a cooking space. I found this place with a kitchenette for a very reasonable price. The rooms are cute and rustic and there was a fire pit with complementary s'mores. We had a wonderful time there and will stay here again.

Rooms were clean and well appointed, and the location is fantastic for accessing the variety of activities in North Tahoe. But what really drives me to leave this review was the phenomenal customer service that persisted long after my stay. My child had left a stuffed animal in the bed that we had missed and we did not discover it missing until bedtime at home. The staff at Cedar Glen tracked down the missing stuffed animal and held it for us. They even went as far as to receive packaging from the local post office and sent the missing item home. I could not be more grateful! We will certainly be returning.

Celebrated a weekend away for my anniversary with my partner - it was wonderful! Highly recommend the honeymoon suite for: the privacy of having the entire cabin to yourselves, the jet tub, quaint & perfect size for 2, renovated & warm furniture/flooring, the cozy fireplace, and spacious fridge. Designated parking space was nice. Very quiet area right across from the beach! My only “complaint” is that the toaster was janky and the hot water ran out once (it re-filled/came back about an hour later so it wasn’t that big of a deal). I will happily return another time and I’ve already recommended this place to family.

Wonderful and spacious place to stay in the lovely North Tahoe area. Perfect for dogs! They even gave our pup a cute little couch. Staff is friendly and helpful.

Very comfortable and calming. A beautiful location. The outdoor fire at night was delightful, and made more special by the complimentary s'mores ❤️

It's a very rustic style motel. It was very clean and front desk person was helpful. We had a room that was fairly close to the road and unfortunately there was road construction literally going on all hours of the night, which really put a damper on our sleep. We would have appreciated knowing that ahead of 9PM! when my husband inquired and been given/offered a room further away. Also the AC wasn't cooling the room, it was heating it, so that wasn't ideal either. Pillows and bedding were equally rustic, but for the price it was fine for one night.

Cedar Glen Lodge was a great choice! I had seen the beautiful lodge for years being a past NLT resident and always wanted to go check it out. The rooms are very well appointed, mountain style and super comfortable.The view of course is fantastic and just a short walk to the lake.I very much enjoyed my stay!

I didn’t care for this extremely car dependent North Tahoe location. The lodge was fine, but the pool, the lack of play structures, the busy highway separating the lodge from the lake made it difficult for us to enjoy our stay with a toddler. Another part of visiting Tahoe is the congestion everywhere. We weren’t able to hike or go to the beach because we couldn’t secure parking without significant premeditation and planning. Another sticking point was lack of room service and questions about specific things that needed to be cleaned when we asked for one.

Excellent resort. We stayed one night here and wow the rooms are impressive as well as the resort. The picnic area is pristine and had a huge fire pit. Got to enjoy the pool and hot tub which was very clean. As for the rooms ours was outstanding. Has everything you need to feel at home along with a great view of the lake. The staff here goes above and beyond to make you feel at home and they have great customer service. I would definitely come back here.

I am a wedding planner, and the couple that hired me asked to find a space for their group to all stay together! They didn't want a room block, because they felt it may reduce their intention of time spent together. The place we found was Cedar Glen Lodge. After touring other spots throughout the lake - this lodge was nearby to a beach, in town, an easy drive to get to all other actives, and offered additional amenities. Cedar Glen has plenty of space for groups, many amenities to keep their guests entertained, beautiful views, and is very clean. Not only is the space perfect for a group staying together, their staff is outstanding. When I arrived for the first tour, the GM took me, happily, throughout the entire property and provided me with plenty of details.. I left with no questions, and 100% comfort knowing that this space was perfect for the group. Another example of them going above and beyond was: we purchased breakfast for the day after their wedding. We delivered it to Cedar Glen kitchen space, and left it two days before the post wedding brunch. Our team planned to arrive and set-up breakfast that morning before guests arrived to enjoy it. When we arrived to set up the food, the Cedar Glen team had displayed their food for us beautifully, it looked like a professional display! All guests raved about the rooms, and their stay. Zero complaints, and will definitely suggest them again!

Great place to stay. Rooms are tidy and cozy and the location is great. About 5 mins driving from the busy area of the beach. It was nice and quiet. Guests are offered cold water during the day and coffee in the morning. Shawn was extremely nice and helped me with some last minute modifications to my stay. He also gave great recommendations for hiking trails and food. Thank you!

My recent stay at Cedar Glen Lodge was truly the best trip I've ever had! From the moment I arrived, I was impressed by the cleanliness of the room, which was spotless and offered a stunning view of the surrounding nature. The tranquility of the lodge made it the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.The amenities at Cedar Glen Lodge were top-notch. The pool and hot tub were absolutely fantastic, providing the perfect way to unwind and relax. Additionally, the lodge offers a variety of activities, including golf and volleyball, which made the stay even more enjoyable.One of the highlights of my trip was the exceptional service provided by the staff. Everyone was incredibly helpful and friendly, ensuring that all my needs were met. I must give a special mention to a wonderful gentleman who works both in maintenance and at the front desk. Although I didn't catch his name, I remember he wore black glasses and his service was simply outstanding. He was sweet, kind, and went above and beyond to make my stay memorable.Overall, Cedar Glen Lodge exceeded all my expectations, and I can't wait to return. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat with excellent amenities and superb service, this is the place to be. Highly recommended!

Hospitable, clean, great location. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Cedar Glen Lodge. The staff are incredibly kind and helpful. The location near Incline Village and Tahoe City were perfect for skiing and exploring the lake. Highly recommend!

Cedar Glen is perfect. The cabins are quaint, cozy and clean. We really enjoyed coming back after a long hike and relaxing in the room and using the hot tub or sauna. The staff are wonderful and so welcoming! Really can’t say enough good things about this place! Location is great as well, very quick drive to Tahoe City or Truckee. We can’t wait to come back!

We stayed for 3 nights here recently. The entire lodge is comfortable, clean and modern. The staff were super friendly and made you feel right at home. The breakfast was substantial and the coffee facilities are there all day in reception to use. Location is fantastic, spa and pool clean and warm. Room very warm, great view over Lake Tahoe, bed was comfortable, great amenities.If we ever come back to Tahoe this is where we would be staying. Cannot fault Cedar Glen Lodge in any way.

Our family of 11, ranging in age from 5 to 75, had an amazing stay at Cedar Glen Lodge this past June. Alan, Martha, and Franco could not have been more lovely or helpful. Our four cabins were spotless and supremely comfortable. Breakfasts were delicious and plentiful. Our beach day was made easy with the beach chairs, beach towels, coolers with ice, and tubes provided by the lodge. Nightly campfires and s'mores (provided by the lodge) were enjoyed by all. Franco happily and helpfully prepared the charcoal grills for our family birthday celebration at the lovely picnic area. The children couldn't get enough of the beautiful pool. Every detail during our 4-night stay was family-friendly and perfect! I could not recommend Cedar Glen Lodge more highly and I can't wait to go back one day. Bravo!

My GF and I stayed at Cedar Glen Lodge at the end of May. It was our first trip to Lake Tahoe. I can't say enough good things about the staff and the amenities here, but I'll try. The location is beautiful, just across the street from the lake, and a bit higher, so your view of the lake is amazing. Sipping coffee in the AM with the lake and mountains visible through the trees...fantastic. The room (rooms, really) we'd rented were spotless, really nicely decorated, and felt like home immediately. We had a kitchen, so we were able to do a little shopping and stock up for a few home cooked meals. The entire stay here was perfect. The managers down at the front desk were super-friendly, and really helpful in pointing us to a few places to dine out. Their choices were excellent! Great fireplace and game room in the front lodge, so we enjoyed some Scrabble by the fire one cold afternoon. This was our first Tahoe trip but not our last, and we will definitely be returning to Cedar Glen Lodge.

What an awesome floor level lodging this place has! Within walking distance of the beach to Lake Tahoe and water so clear and so blue, you'd swear it's been colored. In addition to the condos, it has an outdoor grill and picnic area. They also host an upscale restaurant. Within driving distance of the lodge, is a downtown area that you can spend hours walking around to visit shops and places to eat. Awesome vacation stay and would definitely stay here again.
